B5 Blue is Back: Dodge Revives an Iconic Color for 2026 Durango Lineup
The muscle SUV just got even more attitude. Dodge has officially announced the return of B5 Blue, one of its most beloved heritage paint colors, to the entire 2026 Dodge Durango lineup. Last seen on the Durango back in 2018, the vibrant hue — one of the original “High Impact” Mopar colors from the late ’60s and early ’70s — is set to bring a burst of retro flair to Dodge’s modern muscle SUV family.
A Heritage Color Returns
For longtime Mopar fans, B5 Blue needs no introduction. The color first lit up the streets in the golden age of American muscle, draping icons like the Dodge Charger, Coronet R/T, and Plymouth Road Runner. Alongside legendary shades like Plum Crazy, Go Mango, and Hellraisin, B5 Blue stands as a symbol of bold, unapologetic performance — a perfect fit for the Durango’s attitude.
Now, for the first time in eight years, the color is back — and it’s not limited to a single trim. Every 2026 Dodge Durango model can now be ordered in B5 Blue, from the family-hauling R/T to the outrageous SRT Hellcat Jailbreak.
B5 Meets the All-HEMI Durango Lineup
2026 marks another milestone for Dodge: every Durango now comes with a legendary HEMI® V-8 under the hood. Whether it’s towing the family camper or laying down tire marks at the track, every trim delivers best-in-class towing and unmistakable Dodge muscle.
Dodge CEO Matt McAlear summed it up perfectly:
“Adding B5 to Durango, the only three-row muscle SUV powered by a HEMI V-8 engine in every model, best-in-class towing at every trim, and the ability to seat up to seven, is the perfect blend of bold attitude, family muscle, and unmistakable Dodge DNA.”
Unlimited Customization: 7 Million+ Options
For buyers who want to take personalization to the extreme, B5 Blue also joins the Durango SRT Hellcat Jailbreak palette. With the Jailbreak program’s massive range of customization options — now topping 7 million possible combinations — enthusiasts can tailor their muscle SUV down to the smallest detail.
B5 Blue Joins Green Machine for 2026
B5 Blue isn’t the only splash of color for 2026. Dodge is also introducing Green Machine, another bold shade joining the Durango’s growing lineup of expressive paint choices. Together, they reaffirm Dodge’s commitment to high-impact style — a nod to the brand’s muscle car heritage and its fans’ desire to stand out.
Ordering and Availability
Orders for the 2026 Dodge Durango in B5 Blue open November 4, 2025, with a starting U.S. MSRP of $595 for the paint option. Dealer orders for the 2026 Durango lineup began on August 13, 2025.
A Modern Classic, Reborn
With B5 Blue back in the mix, Dodge isn’t just reviving a paint color — it’s celebrating its performance legacy. The return of this High Impact classic to the all-HEMI Durango lineup is proof that Dodge continues to blend muscle, practicality, and nostalgia better than anyone else in the game.
So whether you’re after a three-row family hauler with muscle car swagger or an SRT Hellcat ready to dominate both the drag strip and the carpool lane, the 2026 Dodge Durango in B5 Blue delivers the perfect mix of heritage and horsepower.
